Top tips for renting a car in Kos

• One of the main benefits to renting a car while in Kos is that they offer true independence. If being beholden to bus schedules is not for you, then renting a car is your best bet. For instance, say you want to head to the other side of the island and visit Kefalos. You could pay for a bus, or you could just as easily rent a car and see the island for yourself as you make the 39.7-kilometer (24.7-mile) trip.
• For travelers looking to pick up a rental car after arriving at Kos International Airport, the airport’s rental car desks are all located in the main terminal’s Arrivals Hall.
• Driving in Kos is quite easy with traffic moving at a moderate speed compared to most cities, but one thing to keep in mind when driving is that the roads often have a high volume of mixed traffic including bicycles, mopeds, and other alternative vehicles. Often such vehicles may be driving at variable speeds compared to other vehicles on the road, so it won’t be uncommon to have to pass them, especially on major roads.
• Rush hour is mostly non-existent in Kos, except at the airport when there is a large concentration of flights departing around the same time. In the town proper, though, morning rush hour lasts around an hour, from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. The afternoon rush hour period is about the same, with the main congestion hitting at around 4:00 p.m. and lasting until 5:00 p.m.
